The problem is the frequency. Getting a BSOD is easy. Very easy (how many of us have had a BSOD by doing absolutely nothing? I bet most of us had such a thing).
Meanwhile, Kernel Panics? I've seen four through my entire life. Three of those were artificially induced by me - only one of those was a real Kernel Panic. And that one was Nvidia's fault.
How about Kernel oopses? Seen 5. 4 of those in the five days. Due to a bug in [You've guessed it!] Nvidia's driver code. The remaining one? Idon'trememberlol.

While the frequency I see BSODs is far much greather. Despite the fact I only boot into windows, like, once a month for a day or so.

I've had kernel panics in *nix, mostly because of problem drivers, but occasionally you'll have buggy software (other than drivers) that can cause it. I've seen the OS X kernel panic for while doing nothing, but those instances are very rare (but they do happen, usually after over a week and a lot of up-time and constant sleep-wake up cycles.).

OS X is a fabulous OS. It still maintains a lot of the core code of early BSD. The only people who bad mouth OS X are young gamers and older nerds who can't stand the thought of Grandma being able to use a computer because the OS is so slick even her glaucoma ridden eyes can see and understand the interface.

pretty much what i think of "hey you pay premium for a opensource based os in a wooowww designed gear, how about 5time the price of the same hardware pc based or phone"

to stay on topic actually i run,

Angstrom Linux... yep Beaglebone Black ... (still i think i will switch to another distro, i dont like the choice from beagleboard.org)

also: Kernel panic? i've seen not many of them, BSOD? hardly seen some since i started with Win3.1 till now (except with heavy OC fiddling xD) i got more BSOD (Black screen of doom not Blue screen of death) recently, due to my Club3D HD7870

you know the sentence: "Mac/WinPc/LinuxPc 92.86% of the bug are comming from the Chair-Keyboard interfacing... wether it be user side or developer side..."

my mom and my dad have 2 iPad (1 and 4) and a iPad mini they are just fine for them, still for PC my mom can handle a Win7 netbook but when i gave here a MacBook Air for "harmonizing" with the Pad they have she said "oh gosh its too different shortcut are illogical, the interface is annoying and the price? you really had to pay 3time the price of a pc with the same specs for having "that?" " well she's not technically a Grandma despite her having 4 grand children (from my sister ) and she is only 63yrs

in not a old nerd or a young gamer i dont badmouth apple product i badmouth their price policy and proprietary policy

What's special about it? I just went to the website and read up on it a bit and it sounds like any other start-up linux distro. Nothing caught my eye that really sets it apart from anything else. Maybe I'm missing something?

Ubuntu with KDE environment at home(where i sometimes work) and Debian at work.
I plan to move on Gentoo on my next upgrade(which is not too soon though), install strictly what i need without strange dependencies.

Also Gentoo can have some dependancy hell if you do not optimally use the so-called USE-flags. Usually it is more suited to developers or people who wish to learn computer stuff than to people who just want to use it. Just saying.
